has , as it's prompt someone hanging out washing to dry.............
The above is cheating really....i took it out of my Abruzzo bedroom window only eight years ago,Hardly "old".....but I think it perfectly captures the timeless ballet that is "hanging out one's washing"...an art form that crosses both time and space ........... (click to hear the BobCat) I see Bob from Bacup on Wednesday who celebrated his 81st Birthday last week.He has moved house recently & has just come out of hospital after eye surgery.

I like Martin Parr's lovely B&W photograph, but I think the one you took out your window a few years ago is more interesting! :)
I like your Abruzzo photograph too, and the music is interesting as well.
Thank You Both XX they should maybehang me in an Exhibition?
A clothesline - something I have not seen for years.
I remember ,as a kid, we used to have an indoor ceiling clothes pulley.Not many of them about either.
Love your Instanbul look, Tony! And the lace on the line is gorgeous!
Right on the prompt! Gorgeous clothes lines in such sweet settings!
You've got hanging out the wash covered, Tony. But the pubs in Bacup should keep their glasses cleaner!
I like the lace one and yours from Istanbul. When I had babies in diapers we had clothes lines strung across the kitchen or once the living room. Too bad there are no photos.
